Miami heats up; Djokovic shock split

Miami heats up; Djokovic shock split

Catherine, David and Matt convene to discuss a busy few days in Miami.

The women’s final is set between Elena Rybakina and Danielle Collins and there’s chat about Rybakina’s resilient run so far, Collins’ more destructive path through, and what might happen in the final. How much has her decision to retire at the end of the season helped Collins on court? Should she be on The Backhand List? And why does Rybakina keep playing epics?

On the men’s side, the big headline has been Grigor Dimitrov’s incredible performance to beat Carlos Alcaraz. How did he do it? Has he ever played better? Can he keep it going against Alexander Zverev in the semis? And why does it take Alcaraz so long to adjust tactically to his opponent? There’s also a preview of Daniil Medvedev vs Jannik Sinner. Why does this feel like such an important match for Medvedev to win? Elsewhere, there’s reaction to the news that Andy Murray’s has ruptured his ankle ligaments and that Novak Djokovic has ended his five year partnership with Goran Ivanisevic.
